Abstract

Enhanced 3D enabled transparent display screen for electronic mobile device and method of operation. The display may include a dual display screen varying in translucency. The dual display screen may be a type of transparent organic light emitting display or type of LCD, LED. For gaming and photo applications, the invention response to different level of pressure on touch screen to access different layers of objects in parallax image or bottom layer of transparent display screen. Advertisements delivered on the electronic mobile devices by a mobile app are displayed on the electronic device screen outside the confines or borders of the mobile app. Advertisements are viewed on a rear display screen to non-users of the electronic mobile device. The dual screen may be touch screen with proximity detection and allow for multi-player gaming.

Claims

exact text as granted — not AI-modified
What is claimed is: 
     
       1. A method for generating a simulated three-dimensional image on an electronic mobile device comprising: a plurality of associated transparent display screens; a plurality of associated lens selected from a predetermined set of associated cameras for generating perspective views of images; a 3D camera/cameras and/or 3D sensor for sensing images of objects in three dimensions; wherein the images are viewable using said electronic mobile devices; the method comprising the steps of:
 advertising and screen identification using a mobile transparent screen comprising: simulating a three-dimensional image view of a plurality of objects using a selectable number of transparent display screens associated with an electronic mobile device; said electronic mobile device comprising a plurality of camera lenses associated with said electronic mobile device by assigning a plurality of camera views to said selectable number of transparent display screens; 
 generating a plurality of parallax images associated with said selectable number of transparent display screens by adjusting color contrasts and image depth for simulating a three-dimensional perception of said plurality of objects; 
 generating a plurality of effects, such as bokeh depth effect on one layer and another bokeh depth effect on another layer on a mobile device with multiple layers of transparent display screens associated with said selectable number of transparent display screens; and 
 operating said electronic mobile device as a gaming device displaying gaming images with simulated three-dimensional perceptions, the method further comprising the steps of: 
 
       associating a first predetermined one of said selectable number of transparent display screens for operating as a game background showing a back display layer associated with a gaming application; associating a second predetermined one of said selectable number of transparent display screens for operating as a top transparent display screen; and 
       perceptibly moving predetermined objects associated with said gaming application from said game background to said top transparent display screen while generating a plurality of parallax images associated with said selectable number of transparent display screens by controllably adjusting color contrasts and image depth for simulating a three-dimensional perception of said predetermined objects. 
     
     
       2. The method of  claim 1 , further comprising the step of associating selected ones of said plurality of associated lens views from said selected set of associated cameras with selected ones of said plurality of transparent display screens for controllably adjusting parallax image properties associated with selectable associated lens views. 
     
     
       3. The method of  claim 1 , further comprising the step of associating said plurality of associated transparent display screens in a layered bonded monolithic formation. 
     
     
       4. The method of  claim 1 , further comprising the step of associating said plurality of associated transparent display screens in a layered formed formation. 
     
     
       5. A method for generating a simulated three-dimensional image on an electronic mobile device comprising: a plurality of associated transparent display screens; a plurality of associated lens selected from a predetermined set of associated cameras for generating perspective views of images; a 3D camera/cameras and/or 3D sensor for sensing images of objects in three dimensions; wherein the images are viewable using said electronic mobile devices; the method comprising the steps of:
 advertising and screen identification using a mobile transparent screen comprising: simulating a three-dimensional image view of a plurality of objects using a selectable number of transparent display screens associated with an electronic mobile device; said electronic mobile device comprising a plurality of camera lenses associated with said electronic mobile device by assigning a plurality of camera views to said selectable number of transparent display screens; 
 generating a plurality of parallax images associated with said selectable number of transparent display screens by adjusting color contrasts and image depth for simulating a three-dimensional perception of said plurality of objects; 
 generating a plurality of effects, such as bokeh depth effect on one layer and another bokeh depth effect on another layer on a mobile device with multiple layers of transparent display screens associated with said selectable number of transparent display screens; and 
 controlling translucence of said plurality of associated transparent display screens to operate over a range of translucence from zero translucence or opaque to full translucence or transparent; operating a predetermined one of said plurality of associated transparent display screens as a translucent layer of a gaming application over a range of translucence values for producing a backlit perception for providing a plurality of image enhancement functions associated with the display of said gaming application. 
 
     
     
       6. The method of  claim 5 , further comprising the steps of: controllably adjusting said range of translucence values for adjusting contrast and color perception through said translucent layer of said gaming application; and controllably adjusting said range of translucence for maintaining a controllable level of privacy during gaming application. 
     
     
       7. The method of  claim 6 , further comprising the step of controllably adjusting display views from full screen to partial screen images to further enhance gaming application operation. 
     
     
       8.

       9. The method of  claim 5 , further comprising the step of associating said plurality of associated transparent display screens in a layered bonded monolithic formation. 
     
     
       10. The method of  claim 5 , further comprising the step of associating said plurality of associated transparent display screens in a layered formed formation. 
     
     
       11. A method for generating a simulated three-dimensional image on an electronic mobile device comprising: a plurality of associated transparent display screens; a plurality of associated lens selected from a predetermined set of associated cameras for generating perspective views of images; a 3D camera/cameras and/or 3D sensor for sensing images of objects in three dimensions; wherein the images are viewable using said electronic mobile devices; the method comprising the steps of:
